Three newly-discovered critical vulnerabilities affect millions of Android devices running recent versions of Google’s mobile operating system. The vulnerabilities have been patched in Android Open Source Project (AOSP) by Google as part of its February Android Security Updates. One of the three vulnerabilities, which Google considered to be the most severe one, could allow a maliciously crafted Portable Network Graphics (.PNG) image file to execute arbitrary code on the vulnerable Android devices. Google says it has notified its Android partners of all vulnerabilities a month before publication, adding that source code patches for these issues will be released in the next 48 hours.
